Summary

Peuterspeelzaal de Egelantier in Haarlem was inspected by GGD Kennemerland on 18 September 2025. It is a daycare center (kinderdagverblijf/KDV) for children aged 2-4 years with 32 places, part of Les Petits Kinderdagverblijven. The location offers early childhood education. Overall, the location meets the quality requirements well. The pedagogical climate, staff and groups, and safety and health were found to be in order. One violation was identified in the area of parental rights: annual complaint reports were not appropriately accessible to parents and had to be requested. Following a recovery offer, this was remedied by uploading the reports to the parent app and adjusting the website. The Municipal Health Service (GGD) advises the municipality not to enforce due to this remedied shortcoming.
